Be careful to read the Word of God with observation. In it thou hast the history of the most remarkable battles that have been fought by the most eminent worthies in Christ’s army of saints with this great warrior Satan. Here thou mayst see how Satan hath foiled them, and how they have recovered their lost ground. Here you have his cabinet-counsels opened. There is not a lust which you are in danger of, but you have it descried; not a temptation which the Word doth not arm you against.
William Gurnall, The Christian in Complete Armour

Read the Bible like a military strategist studying past battles.
